This vision takes place after the most recent game. As of this writing, I haven’t actually written the sessions for those games. I just wanted to get this out ther ASAP because it matters to the character, the player, and the world. And it seemed awesome.

As Sieglinde lays down to sleep after her most recent adventure, having helped push back the bone slime into the gap opened to the Aspect of the Moon of Death, Lythronax, by Malfrecues Nul, she is troubled in her thoughts. She knows that she must, by the decree of her stewardship to the moon Maya – counter and couple to Lythronax that completes the twin, Circumago – help all those that she can lead the best lives they may. Yet… She is driven by her own desire to find her mother.

Being an Old Skool type game that emphasizes exploration for the purpose of safely extracting both loot and the actual characters, my players have decided to draw a map of their forays into Stonehell. They are new to this and I have deliberately not given them any advice on how to go about it. The results are fun to watch.

One thing they’ve taken to is drawing small sections with connecting symbols. I imagine they are using scraps of parchment or hide and drawing what they can on them. I’ve take a bit of time to overlay these sections on top of each other so it forms a more cohesive whole. Continue reading →

Sieglinde, Igneel, and Linnus walk slowly into the room with the hulking iron golem attendant behind the bar. It reaches down and starts shuffling the cards in front of it with the sound of metal grinding within; its movements strangely nimble for how large it is. Sieglinde asks it, “So, uh… how are you doing?” Continue reading →

Scott, Igneel, and Sieglinde get a bit of rest after their triumph over Da Dragon then decide to visit Rocky yet again. The plan is to try to bypass his occasional trances when he doesn’t really know what he’s saying. Their method in this will be to cast the spell, Zone of Truth on him. After Sieglinde casts it, Scott tells Rocky the plan. “Hey, what’s up? We’re all friend here, ain’t we?” he asks. Scott explains they are actually trying to help him to see if they can get to truth without the strange effect their asking can sometimes have on him. He figures this is a good idea, so is on board with it. Continue reading →

The three remaining adventurers – Sieglinde, Igneel, and Scott – head up to the area marked by the sign as “da dragon”. Sneaking into the natural caverns, they see two orcs, busy at work shoveling bat guano into a pile. From out of the bottom of the pile is a Kobold foot, presumably attached to the rest of a dead Kobold. Scott lets loose a crossbow bolt and charges it with Hail of Thorns, dropping one outright and peppering the other with hundreds of splinters. Sieglinde tries to follow this up with Sacred Flame but the other Orc dodges out of the way. Looking pretty pissed off, he rushes, swinging his mace wildly! Continue reading →

After a good night’s sleep, Sieglinde awoke ready to take on whatever has come to be known as “da dragon” according to their deal with Trustee Sniv. She heads down into the common area and rounds up those that deem themselves hearty enough for the job. Milo and Phil are there, having a discussion in the corner of the bailey. Joining them are three newcomers to the keep: a wood elf rogue by the the name of Chazzar, a sorcerer of the dragonborn race named Igneel, and a tiefling rogue calling himself Spawn. The two Kobold guards sent by Trustee are camped outside the gates and join the group as they start down the road and into Stonehell Dungeon… Continue reading →
